What Our Clients Say ...
We’d highly recommend FirstFound to anyone looking to start an AdWords campaign. They certainly helped us!

What a difference a year makes!
January 2009, it was the news no businessman or woman wanted to hear, the UK was officially in recession. But the devastating downturn brought about a British bulldog spirit and commerce went into combat. Backed by FirstFound’s army of SEO specialists, our clients marketed themselves online to the masses, and many reported record sales thanks to a powerful online marketing campaign, shouting about their success here in Optimise and on the FirstFound website.
We too made a lot of changes in 2009. In the space of 12 months we recruited 36 new staff at our Manchester HQ and opened offices in Dublin with a team of five.
And now with a total staff of 115, this is what else happened to our team in one year:
- 6 Engagements
- £9,858 Raised for Charity
- 175 Foreign Holidays
- 4 Kittens Acquired
- 5 Babies Born
- 420 Pints Drunk at the Staff Christmas Party
And finally, another significant change, the launch of your quarterly online magazine, Optimise, packed full of SEO tips, case studies and special offers to help you get the most out of your business on the web.
To celebrate Optimise’s one year anniversary we have a special competition section in this issue, ‘FirstFound Freebies’ giving our customers the opportunity to win goodies worth hundreds of pounds for you to keep for yourself or pass on to staff.
Whatever happens in the coming year we can promise you this, Optimise will continue to bring you the best possible service, sound and invaluable advice, an entertaining read, and great tips you won’t find anywhere else!
